I feel tired of being tired, and tired of being fat!
So I now go to the gym 3-5 days a week and i really enjoy it. I feel better over all, when I am working out. Now I am working on adjusting my eating habits. Thanks Much, Annette

There’s a mantra I give in the first audio of M-Power (link in the sidebar) that has helped a lot of people:
“I control nothing. I manage everything.”
Try that… in reality you cannot control anything, but you CAN manage. Manage your nutrition.
Think of it that way and your mind and body will sync up.

Shift work is …
Shift work is difficult — but look into the history of Bill Pearl. He has the most unusual schedule (or did) and managed to be Mr. Universe. You can do it — you must decide, first, that it is possible. Role modeling really helps with this.

Hey Jon, liked the vid. As for my thoughts on your question I firmly believe my problem lies in doing shift work. The things I hear most often is consistancy wich is impossible when you work shifts. Though I can’t get anyone to confirm those thoughts. It’s my own conclusion.
Thanks for putting it out there though

If you go from the Extreme plan back to Lifestyle, how do you make sure you don’t put weight on due to the body getting “used” to the metabolic rates of the Extreme intake?

Hi Notmycity,

Hi Notmycity,
That’s an excellent question. Gluttony is a form of drunkenness for sure, and I can say that food has been ‘my’ alcohol of choice on more than one occasion.
As for the other comments: I’m a paleo nutritionist, so naturally I look at this from a scientific angle, but I understand Christians and others wincing at the word “evolution.” I try to avoid the term and speak of our lives before sugar, which is well-documented and does not clash with most people’s faith.
Many thanks!

Hey Jon,
Interesting…
I understand we both have a Christian background.
For my part, the evolutionary paradigm doesnt really work.
Having said that, Im reminded of this passage in Ecclesiastes: Blessed art thou, O land, when thy king is the son of nobles, and thy princes eat in due season, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
A question I must ask myself, am I eating for strength or for drunkenness?
Thank you.

Q: …
(Q&A cont…)
Q: Did you really write all those books?
A: Yes, believe it or not. No ghostwriters, although I could use some editing. I co-wrote “Low Pressure Sex” (actually I wrote very little of it) with Frank Mangano and co-authored “NaturaPause” with hormone expert Dr. Holly Lucille. Again, I was more of an interviewer in that process, although Holly disagrees.
Q: What’s up with the hair?
A. The hair is up! Just goes that way with a bit of help. No coloring… not yet. : )
Thanks!

Okay all — a quick Q&A. Lots of emails to my YT box and my inbox, all of which are highly appreciated.
I’ll do a real Q&A vid when I get popular enough to do so, but several questions were the same, so I thought I’d answer:
Q: Are you really 45?
A: I’m flattered, and yes.
Q: What skin care do you use?
A: Flattered again. I do take care of my skin. I use Seacrets, but honestly I have ‘horrible’ skin issues and just got lucky with the genes for wrinkles.

Thanks so much Janet! and to everyone — great thoughts. Keep them coming.
More vids next week. A better camera too… ; )

Thank you for your …
Thank you for your FIT365 and this video. I am currently close to my highest weight and caught myself in a reflection the other day. I was horrified to see a fat middle-aged woman looking stupid. Have I been blind? I was truly ashamed to be my physical self. We travel permanently on the road in a small van with no exercise and constant take away meals. Now I need to commit, plan and execute. You are right Jon, it is a mental attitude and now I will begin my life saving course – thanks to you!

The last 8 weeks I have been training with a trainer and have lost 25.2 lbs. I have 150 more pounds to loose. So far but so obtainable. My self esteem is still not what it should be but it is getting better. I see myself changing and believing that I deserve it.
September 4th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
I will tell you why …
I will tell you why. I have always een the fat one in my family. I never thought God wanted it for me. My self esteem consequesntly was in the toilet. My best friend is a Model. I look at him and I see everything I am not. This adds to my negative belief.

Thanks for responding.
I am sorry, I didn’t make myself clear.
I was using a different program. It was slow proress.
My workouts being 30 mins or longer. I did see results as far as more energy and more flexibility.
The swelling is down, since I have been taking a break.
I have membership with your EOOD and will look into the Radical Fat Loss Blueprint.
Thanks again.
I like that you put into words things I am going through.

Yeah, I noted that in my info section btw… I’m looking around today for a good camera/pod plus a warm light. Any suggestions? Has to be Mac-friendly.

Jon, your last …
Jon, your last statement about fitness starting in the mind is 100% right on! About 8 years ago, I set my mind to lose weight and was in the best shape of my life after having my 4th child. I wore a bikini and felt great in it. Sad to say, I love food and am now at my highest weight (excluding pregnancy). I know what I have to do, but I just don’t feel motivated at all to go for it again. I love the taste of good food, the ease of fast food, and not feeling like I can’t have something.

Jon,
Good first video! Just keep the camera still, it was moving up and down too much, I was getting sea sick and it was distracting from watching and listening to you.

Jon, nice and easy, and of course with humor, that’s great, it’s good to see you in person, not just heraing you, this is a great adition to your programs, congratulations

Brilliant ‘pep-talk’ , I’ve been following your program for the last few months and the video is a good addition to the program. Thanks

Thanks for the comments everyone.
Queen — keep us posted on that swelling. Interesting how impatience can lead us to a path of even slower progression, isn’t it?
Slow and steady, with “surges” of rapid fat loss, is the strategy I preach. And it’s working like crazy.
This new “Radical Fat Loss Blueprint” is based on that: 21 days, and up to 21 pounds. It’s nuts. But after that you go back to faster-than-normal but much more moderate fat loss. Keep the body guessing, and do it in spurts.

Hello, thanks for …
o, thanks for posting such a close to home topic, to discuss things like these.
To answer your question, I find myself feeling overwhelmed with the magnitude of changing my food habits, exercise habits, etc. I was exercising everyday, but had an old injury flare up on me, so I quit. I did not see results QUICK enough so it discouraged me. That is what I feel. However, recently, I purchased the EODD and like what is happening and am waiting for swelling to go down so I can exercise.
